Grand Annex (San Pedro, CA)
Paul Smith, best known for spending 20 years as Ella Fitzgerald’s pianist and conductor, plays traditional jazz with his Trio at the Grand Annex in San Pedro. A true master of cool jazz, bebop and swing, Smith’s career goes beyond his work with Fitzgerald: he worked with Les Paul and Tommy Dorsey, and has recorded with a who’s who of classic jazz, including Dizzy Gillespie, Steve Allen, Stan Kenton, Mel Tormé and more. He’s joined by Paul Gormley on bass and Alex Smith on drums.
